Project Outline: How to Paint

IDD302 Final Project Outline

Spring 2009

Your name: Marni Vail

Project title: How to Paint a Beautiful Picture.

Project description:

I am going to create a project that will help students become better painters.

Project context:

My target audience is the students at BYU Hawaii and everyone else who wants to learn.

Project rationale:

People who want to learn how to paint will be instructed in a step by step process how to plan, and carry out a painting. Art classes tell you techniques but sometimes don’t walk you through the whole painting process beginning to end.

Instructional objectives:

(Instructional objectives help you clarify what exact knowledge, skills, and attitude you want the learners to acquire from this program. State here the A, B, C, and D of your objectives. See Winegarden’s article in Blackboard.)

At the end of this online training, students will be able to…

1) The students will learn how to gather ideas and inspiration about what to paint.

2) The students will be instructed on proper planning techniques about: getting a canvas, preparing water, which brushes to use, how to grid a canvas,

3) The students will be able to blend basic colors on the color wheel and know how to lighten or darken a color.

4) The students will learn about proper sketching techniques, and how to measure proportions using a pencil.

5) The student will be able to paint and know what brush strokes are needed for what style of painting the students would like to do.

Instructional method:

I will use video clips as well as pictures zooming in. I will also be using voice overs and testimonials from other people that I have painted with, that will share their helpful tips.

Assessment:

I will prepare an online questionnaire for me to find out what the students learned.
